Gorgon City don’t really do standing out. It’s near impossible to tell them and their music apart from the other white male dance duos that have gained unprecedented popularity over the past two years, Disclosure and Secondcity among them. Likewise, you probably wouldn’t recognise them if they were standing next to you in Tesco’s frozen aisle. Despite that, the Gorgons have slithered into the charts, their functional vocal house tunes contributing to the country’s renewed hunger for 4/4 beats and something new to put on their workout mixes.

It’s the last night of their UK tour and, while it’s a well-oiled machine, their live show struggles to maintain a sense of momentum. The curious mix of inoffensive garage house hits and metallic bursts of 90s breaks and acid techno isn’t transporting so much as dated. New track Gangster Jam might sound like early Prodigy, but it does so without any of that group’s bite.

Mostly, though, the performance is predictable, and as budget as the creased muslin backdrop that looms large behind the band. They leave their big hits till the encore and rely on a UKG medley played on their Radio 1 live session for thrills. Without guest vocalists on the night – despite there being one on every tune on their 2014 album Sirens – Gorgon City’s live band’s vocalists do their best, as they belt out platitudes about keeping on dancing and the sun shining “for the last time”. Singer Lulu James, in particular, emerges as a proper one to watch: she’s an performer and takes on the divahouse vocals on Go All Night just as well as Jennifer Hudson.

Without James, however, the show would be forgettable and a reminder that not everything needs to be experienced live. This is music for washing dishes to.
